Recovery & Retrieval Lifting & Handling

These selected magnets are among the strongest available and specifically designed for demanding, heavy-duty applications. There are two main types, pot magnet assemblies, and raw magnets. They may look similar but have very different uses.

Pot magnets - Designed for clamping directly onto a steel surface. They are made from a large magnet encased within a steel shell. They are magnetic on one face only, creating a solid clamping force. However, they cannot be used to attract other magnets or attract through a gap.

Raw magnets - A plain magnet which can be used in direct contact with a steel surface and to attract or repel another magnet. They can also be used when attracting through a gap, although a magnet'92s strength does decrease significantly when used this way. Don't miss our range of N52 neodymium magnets, which are among the strongest permanent magnets in the world!
